hi, just bought my first double disc hardtail, sumthing ive been lookin forward 2 since i started biking years ago, simply coz they look so cool but only now ive been able 2 afford 1, anyway..
my back disc brake keeps makin a whistling type of noise whenever i pedal, it doesnt wen im not peddling for sum reason, i dunno if its got a bit of dirt on it or sumthing, i dont think so considering ive only taken it out once and tht was just on roads.
any help wood help, thnks

What bike do you have and what brakes do you have? If its new just take it back to the shop you got it from if you think there is a problem.0

the pads will need to bedding in first, give it a week and then take it back. the caliper may just need realigning.

could be that ur rear wheel is loose and moves about in the frame when you pedal. check that first before you get worried.

If it "whistles" when your pedaling, but not when you freewheel, i'd be looking more towards the drivechain area, rear mech in particular.

Something round here tastes bad. Could be plain old bad taste.
